Thanks for the tips. Thing is that everything does run fine, until after I startup Arcadeos, then shut it down. It's how my computer reacts after I have used Arcadeos. It seems that when I quit out of Arcadeos, it doesn't really quit, even though I did shut it down.Almost like dos or Arcadeos is still there in the background, but I can't see it. After I reboot the computer, everything is fine again. Also, how do I check the dos prompt property settings? Maybe dos, for some reason, is not shutting down properly?
: Are you checking what loads up at startup?? Sometimes there be things loaded there you don't need that hog memory..
: If you are using Windows98, under the start/run menu type msconfig and remove the unneccessary items from the startup tab.
: If not Windows98, then check under your load/run section in win.ini, in the startup folder, in the registry.. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
: Make sure you've got everything closed, and check your DOS prompt property settings.
: Hopefully that will sort it.
